Let's look in the Gospel of John
chapter 9. If you would this evening, John
chapter 9. We've been looking at this story
of the Lord Jesus and His great omnipotence as the physician
and this man who was blind Our Savior graciously restored his
sight to him. Others who observed this man
wondered what happened that he could all of a sudden see. And they asked him, and he didn't
know who the physician was who healed him. And then they brought
his mom and dad before them. That is, the Pharisees brought
his mother and dad before them. And they, not wanting to be excommunicated
from the Jewish temple, they kind of gave a roundabout answer
and basically said, well, he's of age. Why don't you ask him?
Let's pick up the reading then in John chapter 9 and verse number
24. Then again, called they the man
that was blind, they said unto him, Give God the praise. John
9, 24. He said, We know that this man
is a sinner. That is Jesus of Nazareth. He's
a sinner. He answered and said, well, whether
he be a sinner or no, I know not. One thing I know that whereas
I was blind, now I see. And said they unto him again,
what did he to thee? How open he thy eyes. He answered them, I've told you
already you didn't hear, wherefore would you hear it again? Will
you also be his disciples? Are you interested in becoming
his followers? Are you interested in becoming
students of this one who healed me? And then they reviled him
and said, thou art his disciple, but we're Moses' disciples. We know that God spake unto Moses,
but as for this fellow, as for this fellow, we don't know whence
he is. The man answered and said unto
them, This is a marvelous thing that ye know not whence he is,
and yet he has opened my eyes. Now we know that God heareth
not sinners, but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth
his will, him he heareth. Since the world began, was it
not heard that any man opened the eyes of one who was born
blind? If this man were not of God,
he could do nothing. They answered and said unto him,
Thou wast altogether born in sins. And dost thou teach us? And they cast him out. They excommunicated
him. Well, then Jesus, the Lord Jesus,
he heard that they had cast him out. And when he found him, he
said unto them, or he said unto the man, Dost thou believe on
the Son of God? And he answered him, and he said,
Who is he? Lord, that I might believe on
him. And Jesus said unto him, Thou
hast both seen Him, and He it is that talketh with thee." He
said, Lord, I believe, and he worshipped Him. I want you to
go back up to verse number 29. And this is my subject. Who is this fellow? It's what
the Pharisees said. We know that God spake unto Moses,
but as for this fellow, we don't know whence he is. Who is this
fellow? They meant this in a vile way,
in a way of great contempt. Look back. This is not the first
time they spoke to our Lord this way. Go back in Matthew chapter
number 12, Matthew 12. It wasn't first time and it wasn't
only the last time that they spoke to him this way. Matthew
chapter 12, look at verse 22. Then was brought unto him one
that possessed with the devil, blind and dumb, he healed in
so much that the blind and dumb both spake and saw. All the people
were amazed and said, is not this the son of David? But when
the Pharisees, they heard it, they said, this fellow, and you
notice both in this scripture and also in the one in John chapter
9, the word fellow is not in regular print. It's italicized,
which means those who translated the scriptures, they just kind
of put this word in to make it read better because there wasn't
a word actually to literally carry over into the English to
convey what these men meant when they
were speaking of our Lord. Basically it was, this whatever
he is. That's the best definition of
fellow. This whatever he is. They thought he was a devil.
In this very Scripture they said this fellow does not cast out
devils, but by Beelzebub, the prince of devils. They just didn't
know who he was. And they weren't going to acknowledge
that he was God's own son. They weren't going to acknowledge
he's the savior of sinners. They weren't going to say that
he's the one who came down from heaven. So they just say this
Whatever He is. Whoever He is. The only way He
casts out demons is by the power of Beelzebub. So they said this
is before John chapter 9. Go over toward the end of Matthew,
Matthew chapter 26. And this is just before His crucifixion. We read in John 9 where they
called him fellow. In Matthew chapter 12 they called
him fellow. Now here in Matthew chapter 26,
here again they speak of him in a derisive way, in a way of
mockery. Matthew chapter 26 in verse 57. They had laid hands on Jesus. They led him away to Caiaphas,
the high priest, where the scribes and elders were assembled. But
Peter followed him afar off under the high priest's palace and
went in and sat with the servants to see the end. Now the chief
priests and the elders and all the council saw false witnesses
against Jesus to put him to death and found none. Yea, though many
witnesses came forward, yet they found none. At last came two
false witnesses and they said, this fellow, this whoever he
is, this whatever he is, This fellow said, I'm able to destroy
the temple of God and to build it in three days. Now, this is
a question I want to ask and answer this evening, if God would
enable me to do so. It's the question, who is this
fellow? Look with me in Hebrews chapter
10. I'll start right here in Hebrews
chapter 10. Who is this fellow? Well, number one, he's the end
of the law. That's who he is. He's the end
of the law. Hebrews chapter 10. He's the end of the law. He's
the goal of the law. He is the fulfillment of God's
law. Hebrews chapter 10. Look with
me please in verse 5. Wherefore, well verse 4 says,
Hebrews 10 verse 4, for it's not possible that the blood of
bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore, when it
cometh into the world, he said, sacrifice an offering thou wouldest
not, but a body thou hast prepared me. in burnt offerings and sacrifices
for sin, thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I, lo, I come in the
volume of the book that is written of me to do thy will, O God. Above, when He said, Sacrifice
and offerings, and birth offerings, and offering for sin, thou wouldest
not, neither has pleasure therein which are offered by the law.
Then said He, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away
the first, that He may establish the second, by which will we're
sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once
for all. He is the end of the law. That's
who this fellow is. Who is this fellow? Who is this
man who says he's the Lord of glory? Who is this one who says
he came down from heaven? Who is this one who says he was
born of a virgin? Who is he? Well, this fellow,
he's the end of the law, and according to Romans chapter 10,
he's the end of the law for righteousness. You see, in the Old Testament,
all of the sacrifices, all of the ceremonies, all of the laws
of the Mosaic economy, they were never meant to be a way of salvation. They were never intended to be
the means of God rescuing those folks from their wickedness and
their sinful condition. God never had any satisfaction
In any of those sacrifices, we just read for the blood of bulls
and goats, they couldn't take away sin. That's why over and
over again every year, thousands of sacrifices were offered on
the Jewish altars because none of them could satisfy God. None
of them could render any satisfaction to His justice or to His law
that said the soul that sinned shall die. They didn't put away
any sins. No transgressions were forgiven
as a result of the offering of those animal sacrifices. Only one sacrifice could ever
put away sin, and that's the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus. The law of God given by Moses
wasn't then given to save men. It was designed by God to identify
sin. It was given by God, it was designed
by God to expose our sinfulness. It was given by God in order
that men would see how necessary that they have a Savior. Have
a Savior. Once the law of God had been
fulfilled by our Lord Jesus, then the law of God had no other
purpose. You see, God's law, having identified
our guilt, having identified exactly what sin is, it drives
us to the Lord Jesus. It says in the book of Galatians,
the law of God is our schoolmaster. Oh, it's a very cruel schoolmaster. But it was at driving us, as
it were, by force. to King Jesus, the only one who
can save us from our sins. Because the law of God, every
time they brought a sacrifice, the law of God said, well, yeah,
you did good in bringing that sacrifice, but now bring another
one. He brought another one. The law of God, as it were, the
priest of God said, that's great that you brought this sacrifice,
better be back here at noon to bring another one. We're going
to have to offer one every morning, we'll have to offer one every
night, every time you want forgiveness of all of your sins, You seek
to worship God, you've got to bring another offering. Once
a year, the high priest goes into the Holy of Holies. He's
going to sprinkle the mercy seat with blood. And he's going to
lay his hands on the head of a goat, a scapegoat. These things
are going to be done over and over and over and over again.
And all of them were saying, this matter of man's sinfulness
hasn't been dealt with yet. And it never could be dealt with
except this fellow, this fellow, enter into the world. The Old
Testament Scriptures always reminded the people that God had no real
regard for the sacrifices except in this way. They pictured one
who would come and do the work of redemption. That's what they
did. But they never washed away any sands. That's why it's so
foolish. You ain't listening to some of
these guys that are like prophecy majors. And they say, well, Israel
is going to be rebuilding the temple over in Jerusalem, and
they are going to reinstitute the offering of animal sacrifices
to God. God is going to be well pleased
with them. No, no, no. There is not going
to be reinstituting the animal sacrifices. God's Lamb has died. God sacrificed His dying. That's
the only way God could be just and justify the ungodly, is for
the Lord Jesus to give His life. This fellow, this fellow, he's
the end of the law for righteousness to everybody who believes. That's
what the Scriptures teach. Who is this fellow? I'll tell
you, secondly, he's Jehovah's faithful servant. Look with me
in Isaiah chapter 42. Isaiah chapter 42. Isaiah identifies Him as being
the faithful servant of Jehovah. Now, all men are the servants
of Jehovah. All angels are the servants of
Jehovah. And in that way, we're all the
servants of the Lord Jesus because He's the Son of God. But this
is what the Son of God did. He stepped down, as it were,
to be the servant of Jehovah. He is Jehovah Himself. He's not
ashamed to say He's equal with God. He's got to be God. He's
got to be equal with God in order to save us. But also, in order
to save us, He had to leave heaven's glory. He had to come down here. He had to be God's faithful,
Jehovah's faithful servant. That's what's being set forth
here in Isaiah chapter 42. Look at verse 1, where God says,
Behold My servant, Isaiah 42, 1, Behold My servant whom I uphold,
Mine elect in whom My soul delighteth, My soul is well pleased with
the Lord Jesus. How many times in the New Testament?
Three times we hear the Father saying, This is My beloved Son
in whom I'm well pleased. He's well pleased with Him because
He's equal with Him. He's equal with Him. He is the
Son of God. There's the Father, there's the
Son, there's the Holy Spirit. And so the Father and the Spirit,
they're equally pleased with the Son of God, but now He's
speaking of Him as that One who is Jehovah's servant. The One
who stepped down. Well, why did He have to do that?
He had to serve Jehovah perfectly, because we couldn't do that. And He came to serve Jehovah
in this way. To be the sacrifice for our sins. Notice what he says, I put my
spirit upon him. He shall bring forth judgment,
righteousness to the Gentiles. Folks like us. He brings righteousness
to folks like us. How did he do that? By his obedience
unto death, even the death of the cross. Look at verse number
two. He shall not cry, nor lift up,
nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. A bruised reed
shall he not break, smoking flax shall he not quench. He shall
bring forth judgment unto truth. He shall not fail, nor be discouraged,
till he hath said, Judgment in the earth and the isles shall
wait for his law. He came down here to faithfully
serve Jehovah. Our Lord Jesus spoke to His disciples. He said, I didn't come for you
to minister to me. I came to minister to you. I didn't come for people to do
something for me. He said, I came to do something
for people in the name of Jehovah, in the name of God. Because nobody
else could remove the debt of sin that we owe to God. He came down here on a mission
of mercy. God sent Him. God sent Him. God didn't send Him into the
world so that He could then love us, so that the Lord Jesus, by
making us beautiful, then God would love us. Oh no, God sent
Him into the world because He did love us to make us beautiful,
to make us into the image of His own Son. God sent Him on
a mission. And our Lord Jesus, He's the
voluntary servant of Jehovah. Here I am, Father, send me. You
remember in Isaiah chapter 6 when Isaiah had a sight of the holiness
of God? And then the Lord said, who will
go for us? Whom shall I send? Isaiah said,
behold, here I am Lord, send me. Well, in an infinitely greater
way, before the world began, the Lord Jesus said, Send me! Send me! He's the voluntary servant
of Jehovah. The Father gave Him a people.
The Son of God said, I'll go. I'll redeem them. I'll save them. I'll reconcile them. I'll bring
them all safely home to glory. I'll be your voluntary servant.
And He's the only one who could do that job. He's the only one
who's eminently qualified. The only one who was qualified
to do that. But he had to do it voluntarily. Voluntarily. You see, all of
us, all the devils, all of the angels, all of mankind, we all
serve the purpose of Jehovah. The Lord Jesus, He's the only
servant of Jehovah who volunteered to serve Him. And He served Him
faithfully. And He served him fully. He had
a specific mission that He came to fulfill. Go a little further
in Isaiah, look at Isaiah chapter 53. Isaiah chapter, well, first
of all, chapter 52 and verse 13. Isaiah chapter 52 and verse
13. God says, Behold My servant,
behold, look! Oh, that He would get our attention.
Oh, that we would be absolutely thrilled to see Him. Look, behold,
my servant shall deal prudently. He shall be exalted and extolled
and be very high. God says He's my servant. He's
my servant. And look over in the 53rd chapter,
look at verse number 10. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise
Him, He hath put him to grieve. Who bruised him? God bruised
him. Who put him to grieve? God put
him to grieve. When thou shalt make his soul
an offering for sin, he shall see his seed. He shall prolong
his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his
hand. He shall see the travail of His soul and shall be satisfied. I'll tell you, God wasn't pleased
with the travail or the agony or the death of any other sacrifice. But when His Son, the Lord Jesus,
died on the cross, God the Father saw the travail of His soul and
He was satisfied. God's not satisfied with anybody
else suffering for sin. That's why it says in Ezekiel
that God If God delighteth not in the suffering of the wicked,
he doesn't get any satisfaction. But he got satisfaction right
here. It says, by his knowledge shall
my righteous servant justify me. Righteous servant. I was sitting up at the hospital
Monday. There was a lady I was talking
to her just a little bit. Actually, she was first of all
talking to her nurse, and they were talking about what church
they went to. And she said, well, I didn't
know we went to the same church. I said, yeah, and it's quite
a big establishment. And I want to know where they
sit. She said, well, I always sit in the middle. And this other
one said, well, I always sit in the back. And she said, I
sure do hate when somebody sits in my seat. And so they talked
back and forth, you know. And so then the nurse walked
off and left. And I asked the lady, I said,
where did you say you went to church? And she told me. And
I said, oh, where is that? And she told me the location.
And I said, what do you folks believe about justification?
First of all, I'll say this. I asked her how many years she'd
been going there. She said, oh. Many years, my
father-in-law went there and my mother-in-law went there.
They're deceased now, and so we still go there. And I said,
well, that's interesting. I said, well, let me ask you
this. What do you all believe about justification? She said,
hmm. I don't think I ever heard that
word before. And I did ask, I said, you go
pretty much every Sunday? Yep, unless I have to work. I'm
there every Sunday. I'm faithful. I said, well, are
you familiar with the word justified? He said, no, I don't think I
ever heard that word either. Oh, I forgot to tell you this,
because I shared this with a man in back. Her dad was a Baptist
preacher years ago, Southern Baptist preacher. And I said,
what about the word just and righteous? She said, I'm just
not familiar with those words. Well, then she was about ready
to leave. I wasn't. I had to stay a while
longer, but she was ready to leave. And I said, I said, well,
I enjoyed briefly talking with you. I said, would you do me
a favor? And she said, well, maybe. I said, I wonder if you
had asked your preacher, if he would preach sometime on the
subject of justification. She said, I might just do that.
She said, I'm kind of curious about it myself. I said, well,
I tell you, just, justified, justification, that subject's
found throughout the Bible. I tell you, people don't hear
much in these churches today. They don't hear anything about
the gospel. Anybody doesn't know how God
can be just and justify the ungodly. Let me tell you something, that
question is asking the book of Job. Job is the oldest book in
the Bible. Did you know that? It was most
likely the first one written. Of course, the book of Genesis
is the first one chronologically. But Job is probably the first
one written. And Job, that question is raised
in the book of Job three or four times. How can man be just? How
can man be justified? How can man be righteous before
God? In the course of our brief conversation,
I'll just kind of back up and tell you this. I said, well,
do you believe in salvation by grace? She said, oh, I believe
grace. She said, I saw my daddy dying. He never fussed. He never complained. He never talked about how much
pain he was in. She said, I'll tell you, that's
grace right there. That's grace. I said, well, I'll
tell you what grace is. It's God showing us favor when
we don't deserve it. That's what grace is. And that
kind of got us into the subject of justification. It says here
in this verse of Scripture, my righteous servant shall justify
many. I want to know what justification. If God's righteous servant justified
many, well, I want to know what does it mean He justified them? Well, it means He made them right
with God. Are you right with God? You can't
make yourself right with God. You can't make yourself righteous.
You can't make yourself acceptable to God. Ephesians chapter 1 says
we're accepted in the Beloved. In the Beloved. My righteous servant. I tell
you, all of us are the servants of God. I've already said that
demons and angels and all mankind, we're all servants of God, but
there's just one who's God's righteous servant. God's absolutely
perfect servant, who rendered a perfect service to God, the
Lord Jesus Christ. Who is this fellow? Who is this
fellow? Well, he's God's righteous servant,
God's voluntary servant. Who is this fellow? He's the
fulfillment of all Old Testament prophecy. I read to you back
over there in Hebrews chapter 10, then said, I, lo, I come
in the volume of the book it is written of me. He's a fulfillment of Old Testament
prophecy. All the prophets wrote about
him, predicted his coming. God told Abraham, in thy seed
shall all the nations of the earth be blessed. When Jacob, just before he died
in Genesis chapter 49, gathered all his boys around him, he started
talking about Judah. He said, Judah, the name of somebody
who is going to come later is going to be Shiloh. Shiloh being
the one to whom people will be gathered in. The one who rightly
deserves to be worshipped. You read in the Psalms, read
of Messiah, read He's the anointed of God. He's the King. He's David's
Lord. He's the child born. He's the
Son given. He's the mighty God. He's the
everlasting Father. He's the Prince of Peace. He's
God's servant whom He upholds. He's Messiah, the Prince. He's
God's elect in whom He delights. He's the branch, He's the Lord
our righteousness, He's the messenger of the covenant. All of those
names, all of those titles belong to Messiah and they're all fulfilled
in Jesus of Nazareth. Who is this fellow? Who is this
fellow? The Jews spoke of Him in a derogatory
way. Who is this fellow? I want to
show you, God called him fellow. Did you know that? Look at Zechariah
chapter 13. But in this passage of Scripture,
Zechariah chapter 13, you'll notice that the word is not italicized. Zechariah chapter 13. I read
to you from John 9, Matthew 12, Matthew 26. Every time the enemies
of our Lord called him fellow, it's italicized because those
who translated the Scriptures out of the Greek into the English,
they didn't have a word for that. Who is this? This man. This person. But here in Zechariah chapter
13, it is translated. Because it's a different word.
Zechariah chapter 13, verse 7. It's the next to last book of
the Old Testament. 13.7. Awake, O sword! Who's speaking? God the Father. God the Father. Awake, O sword! It's God's sword. What you talking
about? Awake vengeance? Awake justice? I tell you what,
I don't want the sword to awake on me. Do you want it to awake
on you? I don't want it to come awake.
I don't want the sword of God to wake up against me. And it
won't. Because God said, Awake, O sword,
against my shepherd. and against the man who is my
fellow, not italicized." Right here it means my associate,
my relative, literally. One who is my equal, saith the
Lord of hosts. Smite the shepherd. I know Herod finally gave the
okay, smite this man. Okay, crucify this man. It's
what the Jews demanded. What shall I do with Jesus who
is called the Christ? I say crucify, we say crucify
Him. But that didn't make Him be the
Savior. It's when God the Father said,
smite the shepherd. smite the shepherd. He called
upon his own sword of justice. Oh, sword of justice, thrust
yourself right into the soul of my son, of one who is my fellow,
the shepherd. The sheep will be scattered,
and they were. And I'll turn mine hand upon
the little ones, not turned upon them in wrath, but in mercy and
in grace. Who is this fellow? I'll tell
you who he is. He's God's equal. That's who
he is. He's God's equal. In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. I was reading the other day something
about Thomas Jefferson. Some of you history folks know
a whole lot more about Thomas Jefferson than I do, but he wrote
a letter to John Adams about some things that John Calvin
wrote. He said that guy believed demonism. He said the God that he believed
was demonic. Demonic. This is the Lord of glory, Christ
Jesus. He's God's equal. He's not demonic. He's not a figment of somebody's
imagination. He's the Lord come down here.
He's God's equal. Who is he? Who is he? Look with me in Matthew chapter
16. Who is this? Who is this fellow? Who is this
fellow? Well, I'll tell you, he's the
Christ. He's the Christ. Matthew chapter 16. He is the
Christ. Look at verse 13, Matthew 16,
13. When Jesus came to the coast
of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do
men say that I, the Son of Man, am? They said, Some say thou
art John the Baptist, some say Elias, some say Jeremias, or
one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom
say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and
said, And he answers for all the church. This is our creed. This is our belief. This is our dogma. Thou art the Christ, the Son
of God. Thou art the Messiah. The woman
at Jacob's well went back to the city and she told the man,
she said, come see a man who told me all that ever I did.
Is not this the Messiah? Is not this the Christ? Who is
this fellow? He's the Christ. He's the Son
of God. Who is this fellow? And I've
got to go quickly. He's the last Adam. The Bible speaks in 1 Corinthians
chapter 15 of the first Adam and the last Adam, the first
man and the second man. And God deals with everybody
through those two representative men. Who is this fellow? He's the
last Adam. He's the last Adam. He's our
representative. Oh, He represented us in the
covenant of grace. Oh, we had a voice back then.
It was the voice of the One to whom we had been united with
forever. And He stood for us then, and
I tell you, standing for us then, He stood for us down through
the eons of time and right on down today and all through eternity,
He's always going to stand for us. Who is this fellow? Well, I'll
tell you, He's the sovereign Lord of the universe. You know,
back there in my text in John chapter 9, John chapter 9, When our Lord
Jesus, right after the Jews had excommunicated this man, they
said, we just vote you out of our church. Don't ever come back. Don't ever come back. Our Lord
heard that they had cast him out. He said, do you believe
on the Son of God? And verse 36, he answered and
said, who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him? Who is he, Lord? I tell you, He is the Lord. He
holds the fate of all men in His hands. He's the Lord. He's
not in your hands to do with as you please. You're in His
hands. Jesus spake to His disciples
and said, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
John 5, we've already studied this. The Father loveth the Son
and hath given all things into His hand. Romans 14 verse 9 says,
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, excuse me, John
17, 2, As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he
should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
Romans 14, 9, For to this sin, for to this reason, for to this
purpose Christ both died and rose and revived, that he might
be Lord both of the dead and the living. He doesn't want to
be your Lord, he is your Lord. When you believe on Him and you
bow to His Lordship, you're not making Him Lord, you're acknowledging
Him to be, to in fact be who He has always been. He's always
been the Lord. God made Him Lord because He
finished the work of redemption God gave Him to do. Somewhere along the line, this
religious generation has gotten the idea that Jesus in our hands,
and what will you do with Jesus? We used to sing the song. Did
you remember singing that years ago? Jesus is standing in Pilate's
hall, friendless, forsaken, betrayed by all. Those words still come
back to you. A hearken, what meaneth the sudden
call? What will you do with Jesus?
What will you do with Jesus? That's not the question. The
question is what will Jesus do with you? What would Jesus do
with you? And this religious generation
doesn't know anything about a Jesus like that. But I'll tell you,
He's the Lord Jesus Christ. He's the Sovereign Christ. Who
does His will among the armies of heaven, among the inhabitants
of the earth. And nobody can stay His hand
and say to Him, What doest Thou? He's the Lord. That leper met
Him Met the Savior down at the bottom of the hill. Our Lord
had been up teaching, beseeching the Father in prayer. He said,
Lord, if you will, you can make me whole. Lord, if you will.
The believing thief, he saw a bloodied, gory man hanging on a cross,
but he looked past the outward the exterior of that man, and
he saw Him to be the Lord of glory. He said, Lord, remember
me. Lord, remember. I believe You're the Lord. Remember
me when You come into Your kingdom. I believe You're going to have
a kingdom. I believe You're going to rule. I believe You're the
Lord. Remember me. He's the Lord. Every knee is
going to bow to Him. Every tongue is going to confess
that way He's what? He's the Lord. He's the Lord. Who is He? Who is this fellow? He is the one before whom everybody
is going to stand. And you know what? He is going
to be the standard of the judgment because He is the Lord our righteousness. Who is this fellow? He is the
one who is going to be the object of our affection forever. Who is this fellow? He is the
only Savior of sinners. He said, I am the way, the truth,
and the life. No man cometh unto the Father
but by Me. He is the Lord Jesus Christ.
We sang this with the young people during Bible school, and I know
we have a final hymn to sing. Sing this chorus with me. He
is Lord, He is Lord. He is risen from the dead and
He is Lord. Every knee shall bow, every tongue
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Who is this fellow? He's the
Lord. That's who He is. Worship Him
and adore Him. Well, let's sing a closing song,
a shelter in the time of storm.
